An Ellicott City man died over the weekend after an accident on the Tough Mudder obstacle course in West Virginia, the first such death in the three-year history of the outdoor run that bills itself as “Probably the Toughest Event on the Planet.”
Avishek Sengupta, 28, was with a half-dozen friends on the course Saturday when he jumped from a plank into a deep pool of muddy water, a friend, Dan Gemp, said. Sengupta did not resurface and was pulled out after several minutes by a diver on site, Gemp said.
